Easy Broccoli Cheddar Quiche Recipe

For me, there’s nothing better than having an easy quiche recipe in your back pocket. Quiche is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Plus, it can be served hot or room temperature and still be delicious.

Quiche can be customized in millions of ways so they will please many palates. And the main ingredient is eggs so they are ultra affordable.

This easy quiche recipe has only five ingredients but still tastes like it came from a gourmet cookbook. I think broccoli cheese is such a crowd-pleasing combination because it pleases meat eaters and vegetarians alike.

Throwing together this easy broccoli cheddar quiche is a snap and won’t clog up your grocery list with a lot of ingredients! Simply serve it with fruit or a side salad and you have a perfect meal.

Add it to your weekly meal plan for a simple dinner that won’t take a lot to make. It makes a great Meatless Monday option.

This Easy Quiche Recipe is Perfect for Parties!

I discovered the versatility of quiches for the first time at a baby shower. It was a brunch and the quiche was served room temperature and it was delicious.

It’s truly the perfect food to serve at parties because it’s super affordable and can be made ahead of time! 5 ingredient recipes are always great for parties because they keep the shopping list down.

You can also make this easy quiche recipe in a variety of ways. Instead of broccoli you can substitute cooked breakfast sausage or cooked bacon (I love the precooked kind for this recipe!).

The pie crusts come in two packs so I usually make this broccoli cheese for one and then I make another one with meat so I can please multiple palates!
